cape girardeau weekly argus vol v a],e girajipea missouri thursday j~une _ 20 18ij7 â€¢ - ino,2zz poetry heaven beyond those chilling winds arid gloomy i_kios beyond death's cloudy portal there is a land where beauty riever dies and love becomes imuic-rial a land whose li*.ut is never dimmed by shade whose fields aro ever vernal where not hing boauliiul can ever fade but blooms for aye eternal we may not know how sweet its balmy air how l-risht and fair its flowers ; we may nut hear tbe songs tliat echo there through thosa enchanted b.wers the city's shining towers we may not see with our dim earthly vision for death the silent warder keeps the key that opes those gates ely.-iau but sometimes when adown tho western sky the fiery sunlight lingers its golden gates swing inward noise'cisly unlocke.iby unseen fingers and while they stand a moment halt ajar gleams from the inner glory streams brightly through the azure vault afar aud half reveal the story ch lan j unknown t oh ligid of love divine i father all-wise i mti-rnal guide thou those wandering wayworn feet nf mine into those pastures venial miscellany the wdlf jÃŸace , many years ago a party of emi grants , were resting a few days at a small settlement in the southwestern part o,f the united stales preparato ry to crossing the plains which lay beyond between them and their jour ney's end weary with the travel al ready accomplished and _ knowing that sti.il greater pr!valicnu and fa tigues than any they bad passed , were likely to beset them beyond this point they lingered fcerc till one of their number a uomewhat opini onated man named walob refusing to wait longer started on alone with bis family which consisted oi his wife and four children ranging from a year to eight years old mrs walsh bore timid if not more prudent than her husband ro monslrated against proceeding thus but iv vain and the accordingly bet out leaving the remainder of the com pany to follow at their leisure tho intention being to remain several days still where they were the first day passed pleasantly enough the impatient travelers making such progress as caused mr walt>h to con gratulate himself repeatedly on the advantage ho bad gained by not wait ing for bis tardy companions kis wife did not however reply to bis rejoicing she continued to feel anx ious and timid at being by themselves in a country so new and where the uniformity of objects presented on every side rendered it so easy a mat ter to lose the way tier fears proved to bo well found ed before the close of the second day her bu.iband afier repeatedly^alter ing his course confessed at ber half frantic solicitation that he was com pletely at fault concerning the route to bs pursued night came but was cloudy and morning found him in no way reliev ed of his preplexity what to do ho knew not but it seemed as safe at least to push forward as to remain wbcro they were and they according ly did so but with far less hopeful feelings than at the beginning of tho journey toward evening of the third day just as tho despendent walsh was dreading another night passed in tho harrowing uncertainty of the pre vious one his eldest child ; a bright eyed little g'ul called out oh pa pa i see a dog 1 her father turned eagerly to look i tho releaving thought instantly pre senting itself that by some fortunate chance tho party of emigrants that ho bad seperated himself from were approaching it was not 00 howeverâ€”no wag ons or anything that looked like them were to bo seen but away to the right of tho animal which the child had called a dog wero several dark creeping figures tho sight of which mado the man's check pale " what a curious looking dog ex claimed mrs walsh and then catch ing a glimpse of her husband's face she dropped her tonosto a breathless horrified whisper and strained tho baby in her arms closer to her bosom walsh without cloaking had begun to urge hio horses to a swifter pace and the children scared at they knew not what huddled round their molh or and laid their faces in hpr dress is there any danger questioned mrsi wulbh jiii,iii'|'iii^''Â»--'*Â«Â»""iiÂ»mii.ii_i mr^m.mtraman.itmtimmavama.-t-m.ia 1 have heard that such creatures seldom attacked any but people od foot and there are only a few of these her husband did not toll ber that from his more oxpossed c.cat ho could see tho brutes gathering in numbers that appalled him to his very heart's core but ho said in a low warning voice glancing at the frightened lit tle ones : " don't let a cry escape one of the children put your had upon baby's mouth if sheciies and stifle the sounds in jour shawl you might as well throw them out of the wag on as to let those brutes hear them cry neither the husband or wife bad uttered tbe word wolf both seem ed to shrink from it as though to speak it would bring danger nearer it was not yet dark and then blood-thirsty enemies approached sd blowly seemingly doubtful of pursuit that mr walsh began to hope that ho might be ableto distance them before night closed.in he urged his horses ; therefore,to their utmost speed and they weary as they were with the past day's travel stretched every sinew in the race conscious poor beasts what they flew from their driver looked every moment behind him and every moment hope grew stronger as he beheld the dis tance increase between him and his savage foes when suddenly at a jolt of the w,agqn in its hasty courr.e mrs walsh whoso face was turned anxiously toward the opening in the back part in the covered wagon fell forward on the babe she was holding and the other children clinging to ber in their fright and somewhat hurt too a chorus of screams burst from each little throat if was impossible to hush tber.i at or.cc though the frantic mother strove wildly to do so for a single instant the father dar ed to hope that the wolves were too far away by this time to bear the next he saw them sweeping over the plain like a low cloud and their hoarse cries as they incited each other tq the fearful banquit sent thrills of horror along every nerve of his frame the children ceased to cry even the babe hushed its wai / as those sounds were borne toward them on the prairie breeze such a race could not bint ions the frightened horses were but flesh and blood and drew a'heavy load after them = put tbe child down and shut that called widish to

snapping jaws at the crack which remained above tho box " can't you shoot jane ?" called walsh again tho gun is loaded and i dare not leave tho horses fire lowâ€”no-re mind aim but fire low you can't help bitting softie of them , a sharp report answered him mrs walsh was prompt there was instant's pause among the snarling crew and they swarmed on every side the fiercer for tho taste of blood they bad got from a com panion's carcass walsh kept them back a few minutes by lashing them with his long stout whip but they poon ceased to shrink for that and jostling one another crowded upon the wretched horses which snorting with fear and agony plunged and trampled them undor their hoofs but sank at last under the attack walsh himself sprang back into tho wagon and barricaded its front just iv time to escapo the sharp teeth of one of tho largest of the crew a brief interval elapced during which tho horrid pack could bo hoard snarling over tho pop beasts they had overpowered but it div not take tbeni long to finish these car casses walsh had loaded and fired upon tbera soveral timos without interrupt ing their banquet and that done they turned their attention again to the wagon whoso trembling inmates expected every moment to to lorn from their frail rcfugo and dovourod but as the husband and father sterq but agonized waiting that on bet and tho motner sank u|>on hor knees

tho bowlings of the wolves but far from suspecting what i-hey were about hc.j sallied forth in smncient force to dis perse them and just in time iv res cue heir almost victims from their rapacious
